[Hardware Hacking General] T-Keith:
Not sure if this is the right forum for this, but I'm looking for some ideas or links for a project. My father makes scale model working tractors as a hobby. We have talked for years about making them remote controlled, and he has an upcoming one I'd like to try it on.

I would like to make something he can control with an android tablet. (Asus transformer) I'm looking for something blue tooth or wifi that could work output to some servos or relays. Thinking of using a car Window motor for steering and a servo or switch that could run a hydrostatic transmission. I found some how to articles but they are mainly geared towards rc cars and seem quite complicated. I'm hoping this could be done for cheap, not looking for anything too fancy like cameras or sensors.

What do you guys think?

Needs some hardware hacking, but that's why you're here right? Up/down to get you forward/backward and left/right. There's an Android app to control these kinds of camera's. You said no camera's, but that was because of the budget right? $45 is a steal if you ask me...

And don't forget to make a tutorial on how you did it, so we all can build one!

Edit: cheaper but no camera and no web interface: http://dx.com/p/android-remote-cont...-139551?Utm_rid=88474882&Utm_source=affiliate

I recomment you to use a arduino (like arduino uno) http://www.arduino.cc/

you could buy an bluetooth of wifi shield to connect to your tablet.

and a motor shield of relay shield to control some lights and motors.

i hope this will help you!

I plugged in my phone for 20 seconds and I went to check for email notifications and to my amazement it's fully charged.

This is now another possibility in battery issues. I know I'm using a faulty device (that's why I ordered a RMA) but this is kinda odd so I thought I'd share it with you guys.

Let's hope this instant charge sticks lol. I went from 7% to 100% in 20 seconds.
[Nexus 4 General] abufaka:
AW: Instant Battery Charge Glitch

Had that also one or two times. If you leave it plugged in it goes back to the correct percentage after some minutes.

Likewise a minor software glitch that will get fixed soon, nothing to worry.
[Nexus 4 General] stormtroopercs:
Your phone is just that awesome... I wish my phone was that cool :(
[Nexus 4 General] Muikkuman:
Good for example you need to go somewhere and you forget to charge it. Just plug it in for 20 sec and bam it's fully charged and problem solved.

[Nexus 4 General] düdldihüü:
AW: Instant Battery Charge Glitch

This happens when you plug in the phone and the wall charger has no voltage, e.g. because you use a switch that is off. If you switch it on, the glitch occurs and the phone is instantly charged. Of course that's not really the case, though. Rebooting solves this most of the time.
[Nexus 4 General] wilsonlam97:
The Galaxy Nexus had none of these issues. I just hope that Google fixes this soon.
[Nexus 4 General] abufaka:
AW: Instant Battery Charge Glitch

this is a non-issue as it is charging fine when left. no disadvantages except when you really believe it is fully charged in a second.
[Nexus 4 General] Chris_GTR1:
my phones done this 2 times.
[Nexus 4 General] wilsonlam97:
Nope. It doesn't let me continue to charge until I restart the phone (for me at least).
[Nexus 4 General] kino1122:
My phone did this last night. I noticed it right away, so I just unplugged the cable and plugged it back in and bam it went back to charging its merry little heart out
[Nexus 4 General] belongamick:
I am also experiencing this issue with a Nexus 4 (few weeks old) running Andriod 4.2.2.

Anyone know if this issue is fixed in upcoming release?
[Nexus 4 General] banesi:
Just happened on my Nexus with Nokia 1.2mAh charger and latest CM10.1 nightly, reboot solved it though
[Nexus 4 General] FormerSlacker:
I think this is correct. I've had this happen 3 times in 6 months and it's only happened when I plug the phone into the charger right after plugging the charger into the wall.

I've since tried to leave the charger plugged in about 10-20 seconds before attaching the phone and it hasn't happened since (~3 months)
[Nexus 4 General] belongamick:
Thanks, will try this approach.
[Nexus 4 General] gedel wind:
i hope someday "20sec charging" will be a feature for every smartphone :D
[Nexus 4 General] younix258:
Happened to me one night but when i unplugged my phone in the morning, it went down to 40% :/ so evidently it didnt continue charging after glitching. Battery usage pane confirmed this.
[Nexus 4 General] Blocoholi:
I usually charge my phone during nights.. Sometimes on the morning my battery is down to 80%, it stopped charging at 100% and I assume didn't charge any longer and the phone was draining the battery, has anyone else the same problem?
[Nexus 4 General] Blocoholi:
Same thing happened again this morning, so annoying
[Nexus 4 General] pip0:
algebraic Celemes

For me 80% only in standby is too much. I always get Fully charged when I charge it at night.
[Nexus 4 General] Blocoholi:
Well the thing is I didn't unplug the phone from the charger..
[Nexus 4 General] thisisnocrap:
i experienced this twice earlier this afternoon. at first i just started charging my phone and left it over lunch when i returned after 30 minutes i was shocked to see that it was already full but when i unplugged the charger it gave me a notification that that battery was low with only 14% remaining. i replugged it and then went to full charge after a few seconds. so i unplugged it again and uninstalled gsam battery monitor and replugged it in which fixed the problem
[Nexus 4 General] oceanic6:
Same issue on my nexus 4. It was fully charged (from 4% to 99%) in less than 10 seconds... Then I rebooted it, and found that the battery showed 4% again. I am not sure if it is a battery issue or an Android OS issue. By the way, there is another issue on my phone. It shuts down itself randomly. I already returned it for a replacement... I am very disappointed in this Google product.
[Nexus 4 General] zolah:
This has happened to me before. The first time I didn't notice and let it on charge overnight and woke up to the same battery I left it at. This happened to me again yesterday but this time I noticed as soon as I plugged it in the battery went straight to full. I pulled the charger out and plugged it back in and it charged normally
[Nexus 4 General] wilsonlam97:
I've been using the Panasonic TM101 charger for the past 3 months and I've never had a problem :D
[Nexus 4 General] beenbannedbefore:
Seems like LG issue
[Nexus 4 General] MrBelter:
mine jumped from 34% to 100% yesterday in the blink of an eye, its about the 3rd time in a fortnight its done it now.
[Nexus 4 General] hern1989:
Same here. I was at 11% and couple of seconds later I see its at 100%. I thought it had rebooted on its own.
[Nexus 4 General] Ace42:
They lack the superior intellect of other manufactures.
[Nexus 4 General] ralphsphonz:
Rebooting doesn't work

Rebooing Doesn't work. And this glitch can't be fixed.

So I just use my phone until the phone dies and I will charge again...

Hi everyone,

i have a Haipai X720D, and after few errors i've make, i decided to reinstall it

i have download an flash it with http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=36025676&postcount=4

but my phone won't boot anymore, and i cannot connect it to the computeur

i think i've heard a method like pushing the volume+ button while power it on but i can't find it...

any help would be appreciate ;)
[General Questions and Answers] Nitrogin:
up
[General Questions and Answers] MVODESIGN:
- If you hold down HOME button + POWER button + volume UP button you will get into Recovery Mode.

- If you hold down HOME button + POWER button + volume DOWN button you will get into Download Mode.

If you want to flash a customROM go into Recovery mode, there you can find something like MOUNT USB or MOUNT SD. If you do that you will be able to connect to your computer.

When you're connected you can kopie your custom ROM .ZIP file into your Internal SD card after downloading it. If you did that you go back to Recovery Mode. There you can choose instal ZIP from SD card. Instal your previous downloaded .ZIP file from your customROM and there ya go.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whatsaqazza:
Two weeks ago my phone randomly started to think it was charging every now and again. I thought nothing of it until One day it wouldn't boot. It would get stuck at the Samsung n7000 logo screen. I was able to boot into CWM so I did that and I tried to do a back up just because, but then it failed at backing up /data. It said it was corrupted. I went ahead and flashed another ROM and it booted just fine after that, but the charging problem persisted so I just ignored that. My phone just decided to not boot again so I was wondering if there was anything that could be done to save my phone. Also, I've always used a safe kernel.

TL;DR Phone doesn't boot. Randomly thinks it's charging and when I use CWM it says /data is corrupt. Flashing a new ROM only fixes it temporarily.

I just went to a stock rom with ODIN installed a new kernel and then a new ROM so I'll see how that goes for a while, but if it's anything like before it wont last very long.

I've recently became obsessed with changing the Lockring after I had seen it done on other devices so I decided I was going to figure out how to create a custom lockscreen and this is the result.

Just flash zip through recovery and tada.

Yeah I'd definitely like to see what you come up with. I thought there was already a thread on a different forum where people had replacement rings.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] marcmy:
Everything was fine until I flashed PAC-man and Paranoid Android a while back. I went back to stock after and then realized my proximity sensor wasn't working. It was 100% fine before that. In a phone call, my screen turns off and then doesn't come back on unless I stick the phone under light. Somehow my proximity sensor turned into a light sensor. I have tried everything since. I read somewhere that Perseus kernel would help. So I unlocked again, flashed CleanROM (which I liked very much) and Perseus v30. It seemed to work again. I was happy... Until I flashed the latest Perseus v31 a few days ago. It's broken again and I can't get it back. Went back to stock again, unlocked again, flashed a stock rooted rom, flashed beans deodexed rom, flashed CleanROM, flashed perseus, nothing. NOTHING works. What the heck is going on here!? Should I just finally give in and go the warranty route, or can someone identify this problem and come up with a fix. And I know about the temporary setting in call settings, I want my sensor to work though. I know it's not just me, I've seen this in multiple threads for other devices as well, also happening after flashing PA or another AOSP ROM. I wonder what else broke that I don't even know about? I'm tired of dealing with this issue. Thoughts?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] SuperDefcon5:
I'm not surprised this happened in PAC. All the Asop ROMs are based off of cm10 build we have which has a known big of proximity not working. If you had success with Pegasus 30 and clean ROM, try flashing that again. I guarantee someone else on Xda can come up with a better solution so don't waste your root by getting a new device with a new boot loader in it XD

Tried changing and using another tehtering app and it saw it but only gave me limited connection. No internet.) but when I put SU into terminal emulator it returns #.Can someone please tell me how to check to make sure my root is still fully entact and functioning.

Try opening the superuser app.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] 2low2rl:
Thanks for the fast response man. I really appreciate it.

I did and it didnt do anything so I cleared the permissions for it aaaaaaand think i made it worse. in super user I scrolled down to the wifi tether app and clicked it and hit the trash icon withouth thinking it through. IS there a way to manually add allowed apps. I also noticed SU never prompts me to allow apps anymore. Really holding up my ingress progress. lol
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] elesbb:
Just run any app that needs root and it will prompt you again. You cake also download root checker from play store.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] 2low2rl:
Thank you too eles. I actually just did that and it told me I dont not have proper root access. But Terminal emulator does show # when prompted. Can either of you tell me how what may have caused this and how to fix it. I did just get the 4.1.1 update from T-mo so Im thinking maybe that.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
Reflash superuser with your recovery.

Yes do this or Odin the prerooted one. The update broke it.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] 2low2rl:
Thanks again aero. I reflashed it and Root checker still says im not.

What would be your next step to diagnosing/fixing this. and Thanks again you guys I've been freaking out a little. lol
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Android_Monsters:
Just re-root.

Then reflash your favorite ROM.

How did you root in the first place?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] 2low2rl:
Is it really that simple? Won't there be some issues because I have a somewhat partial root already? I honestly don't rememeber my original method. I did it back in september and havent messed with it since. I never even ran any roms I'm still bone stock. Is there a method you would suggest? or possibly a link to it?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
Yes, it really is that simple.

If root still isn't working, follow instructions in my signature. The su zip is also going to wipe out any previous superuser/supersu that is present on your phone.

Alternatively, if you already have CWM on your phone, you can use this http://db.tt/okfh9vzU to update it without tripping your counter.

Thanks to your guys' help I was able to reroot using the tool kit. Now my issue is that I did this to fix my wifi tethering issue and its not. What app would you guys suggest for tethering? I dont have it on a part of myplan but I know theres ways around it. Wifi tether and barnacle didnt work (wasnt seen by laptop or other s3) and fox fi was identified, let me connect but said it was limited, then eventually went to fully connected but still wouldnt load pages or anything. If I can get one of you guys to help me solve this by suggesting an app or something I'll get out of your hair.

Do I need to load a custom rom to tether maybe? Thanks again guys.

[Asus Transformer TF700] Beret67:
I recently bought my new Transformer Infinity and like an idiot I updated to jellybean without thinking if I wanted to root first.

I've tried several different ways but I can't get my TF700t to root after updating so that leads me to ask if I must unlock before rooting after jellybean?

I've tried downgrading and that is to say I've put the 9.4.5.30 update in my root of the microsd card and when I go to recovery boot i just get the little guy on his back with a red triangle and black exlamation mark.

I realize unlocking will void my warranty which I am a little hesitant, though I never purchased any warranty with my tf700t but i think i can do so now.

I tried following this post:

but i couldn't even downgrade
